The Trump administration is working to fulfill a campaign promise to abolish the Department of Education. Details are being finalized for an executive order that will have a two-part strategy to dismantle the agency. First, it will use executive authority to scale back the department’s functionality and workforce. Second, it will call for a legislative plan to redistribute the department’s power to other agencies until the department is ultimately shuttered. House Republicans have also reintroduced H.R. 899, a one-line bill to eliminate the Department of Education.
